Nope, didn’t seem to. I have had one crash since then, but it hung before I was able to get back to the processes tab so I have no idea what made it unhappy.

Weird graphical bugs where my mouse cursor or strange graphics get rendered in the top corner of the display, and hangs and crashes that seem like a firefox isssue. The graphical bugs seem like they may also be a firefox thing, I can’t tell.

My install on framework feels like the most unstable fedora has ever been for me for some reason and I really don’t know why. Maybe customizations I’ve made are the issue? Not sure. My setup is relatively vanilla I think

https://peertube.wtf/w/gomSHP9amwzpxf2QGmkzAF this is the graphical artifact I’m getting periodically. Though recently once it appeared to be a piece of an image, maybe one I had open im my browser or something

This is the weird double cursor thing, the second cursor in the top left corner changes with which cursor is showing.

I just closed a tab a couple minutes that may have been the cause of the issues that felt like a memory leak and resulted in stuff (mostly firefox but not always) crashing, we’ll see if it resolves it

Oh… I’d thought they’d already disabled x11, maybe I can give that a try and see if x org fixes the issues I’ve been having, that way I’d at least know what’s causing some of my problems

Just remember, people will be more open to trying the stuff you’re into if you’re compassionate about the things they’re frustrated with!

(This is intended for anyone who wants friends or acquaintances to try the fediverse platforms. For those who don’t or don’t care that’s perfectly valid too :)

Yeah that makes sense, I’ve been avoiding the outside world as best I can. I’m glad you’re here, have a good one! :)

Welcome to lemmy ☺️

I think it’s unfair to say that’s the point of the rule on a foss project’s discussion forum

Political discourse online gets really fucking toxic really quickly 😅 often driven by entirely legitimate anger and hurt over the state of the world, but we can’t just pretend it’s all an evil conspiracy by big Ubuntu to silence us.

Folks on the internet consistently demonstrate through behaviour why “no politics” is almost always a rule anywhere where folks might perceive it to be off topic, whether one thinks it’s the correct ruling or not (it’s entirely valid to feel it should be allowed even though it brings out the worst in people, though I’m sure that would put incredible strain on moderators given the internet baseline of interpersonal compassion)

And the places online where folks do discuss it? Can quickly get extremely unpleasant, or develop an inescapable undercurrent of hostility that starts to permeate all other interactions on the platform.

Personally I think actually productive political conversation is almost always emotionally laborious, and it’s important to be able to step away from the political aspects of things and catch your breath, even though everything is political. But everything being political doesn’t mean it’s healthy for every conversation to be political, that’s a recipe for burnout and people acting like their worst selves, which is counter productive to pretty much any meaningful political goal.

OSM is just pronounced open street map or as an acronym- O.S.M.

The tilde isn’t from OSM, it’s from OsmAnd (the navigation app), and I thing it’s used to communicate whether you’re running the version from f-droid, or the play store version? I agree that’s confusing and makes for an awkward name though

Ahhh, okay, I understand what you meant now.

Thank you for clarifying :)

Also I swear to god, you ask a single question because you don’t follow what someone meant, and everyone decides the person you’re asking is doing wrong somehow and starts downvoting them. We really gotta figure our shit out

Thank you!!

Just to clarify, OSM is the acronym for Open Street Map, which is just the map/database

OsmAND, comaps, and organicmaps are all apps/clients that use OSM as their source of map data, and add gps navigation functionality

Comaps was forked recently cause there were some issues with organic maps being run in kind of a crummy way that wasn’t in line with the community, if I understand right. But I’m sure someone more knowledgeable could elaborate better

I dunno if this clarification was needed or helpful but I figured I’d add it in case it’s of help :)

I like the organic maps UI, and I have liked the OsmAND functionality, but I’m still working on transitioning away from google maps so I have limited perspective. I do know there’s an app that wraps the google maps website so you can use it without google servicesor whatever and potentially less risk of tracking, and that may be of use depending on your needs!

I’m not sure I follow- has Ubuntu had issues with their stance on diversity before? If I understand right this forum was only recently made official and they hadn’t carefully enough reviewed the pre-existing rules

Edit: why are y’all downvoting them for being out of the loop?? Lemmy get your shit together

They don’t- a moderator to an online ubuntu forum community (that recently became official) misapplied a rule about keeping things apolitical as meaning someone shouldn’t describe themselves as queer.

Ubuntu has made a statement correcting the interpretation made by the moderator

I’ve rarely read a more fitting comment lol

Thats kinda worse even than I thought :/

Thank you for sharing additional perspective I appreciate it!

Gotcha, when I looked I completely missed that

I think they’ve had a number of controversies over the years, but I think the big frustration people have at the moment is really just that snaps are kind of a crummy thing in several respects, don’t have an open source backend, and often don’t work as well as flatpaks (to my understanding)

The increasing commitment to going down that path is a big turn off for many, and disqualifying for some.

That being said, I have used and been happy with Ubuntu in the past. I think some of the dislike is just motivated by “thing popular”, especially since it’s so popular with folks new to linux who are still figuring things out

Ah, that’s fair, between ADHD and my sleep disorder my sense of time is pretty dysfunctional 😅

For me it was yesterday, I didn’t process that not even a day had passed for folks without my weird sleep schedule

Thanks for cross posting, I’m kinda in a rush but wanted folks to see the update :)

Thats beautiful, thank you 🥹🥲
